Hey fam, I need to get something off my chest. I’ve been in a relationship with this guy—let’s call him D. He lives in the UK, I’m in Nigeria, and although we’ve never met in person, things started off beautifully. He was attentive, sweet, and gave me hope. I felt safe… or so I thought. I’ve recently come across posts and pictures suggesting he might have someone else, someone he’s been with for over a year. That shattered me. I’ve been nothing but real with him, and this is how it ends? He once told me he couldn’t date two girls. So, was I ever even “the girl” or just a placeholder? For the past two weeks, it’s like I’ve been talking to a wall. He barely calls, barely texts. Meanwhile, he’s been active online—posting, updating his stories—just not replying to me. Then I stumbled across some videos online. I saw him with another girl. I asked him about it, and his explanation wasn’t exactly clear. Turns out, she’s in Nigeria too, but they had something going on sometime last year outside the country—not even in the UK. The crazy part? As recent as this year April, they were still liking and commenting on each other’s posts.
Since I brought it up, our communication has dropped drastically. He keeps claiming he’s busy, but the energy has changed. I keep wondering… Was I ever anything real to him? Or just someone to fill the gap? I haven’t gotten closure, and I haven’t gotten honesty. Just silence. Please, if you’ve been in something like this before, how did you handle it?
